Sebo X1 - Doesn't work although there is power

\015 The power supply to the hoover is fine and I've dismantled it and checked that there are no blockages. The red lights appear for Bag being full and on the Brush indicator, when turned on the machine just hums and nothing else happens. I did check the brush and have removed this and replaced it. I also checked that the drive belt was attached and this seems to be in order. Any thoughts? Thanks\015

Answers :

I'm not sure about this one but, as nobody else has picked it up, I'll give it my best guess. You say the machine just hums - by which I take it that there's no suction at all. I wonder how old your Sebo is... if it's seen a lot of work, it's more than likely that the carbon brushes in the motor have worn out and need replacing. This is not a difficult job, but you do need to be comfortable tinkering with machinery to attempt it yourself. Otherwise you will need professional help. If you want to do it yourself, post a reply here and I'll give you step-by-step instructions.\012\012Good luck!

My Sebo X4 does not power up, it worked fine the day before but now there's no power. What could be the problem?

Most likely is a break in the electric flex. This can be internal, and completely invisible from the outside. Alternatively, the cable may be visibly damaged so check it carefully. Internal damage usually occurs at the extremities of the flex, where ...
Sebo X4 Bagged Upright Vacuum

Faithful Sebo X1 upright, about 12 years old, stopped working today. I replaced old with new dust bag, checked all dust paths were clear, checked main brush was clear/clean, and drive spindle rotated OK with fingers. When power switched on, the two red indicators briefly flash on then off, but nothing more happens, motor does not start - even with power reaching machine. Tried removing all consumables, refitting and turning on a few times to reset, no joy. Removed base cover, both belts were i

At 12 years, this vacuum has had a good long life. I suspect the motor is shot, but it could be due to faulty wiring and connections. A bad switch, break in the power cord, and worn brushes in the motor are other causes.\015\012I recommend ta ...

Sebo k3 power brush not working

My kenmore vacuum model 116.36933502. It has no suction. I have cleaned out every spot,taken off the back and still nothing. The motor runs but doesnt seem to be at full power. The agitator brush works. When it broke i seemed to smell something and since it has no belt. Does this possibly have to motors?

I have a hoover Core vacuum. The problem is that the blue light flashes (as normal) when it is plugged in and the power is turned on and the blue light stays on (as normal) when you turn it on at the button but it makes no noise and doesnt work. All of the filters are clean. Can you help please?

There doesnt seem to be any power to the powerhead what can i do even though the vacuum works without the powerhead

The Petmate powerhead roller stopped rotating. I checked for anything binding it - nothing. There is power getting to it, just no rotation. As the guy said in the post above, it's like it is locked into the plastic housing, although it just worked last time I used the powerhead. Help!

I have an Oreck canister vacuum, it says fc1000 on the bottom sticker, it's red. My problem is that the suction in it works perfectly, the belt is ok, and the roller can turn, but the motor doesnt turn it when I turn on the power.

The motor on my Epic 6500 works, the hose is sucking, but the power head isn;t working... I tried the sidestep power head and that one works. Ive opened and replaced the belt and that is fine. The bulb was already burned out and wasn't replaced so I cant tell if theres power to the head. What else could it be?

Connect the power nozzle directly to the hose and try.\015\012Check the terminals where the wand connects to the PN. If any are discolored or cracked, that may be the problem.\015\012Open the PN and check for loose or broken wires and co ...

How can I get my DAB radio working again?
I have a Sony XDRS100CD with DAB radio. The DAB radio has stopped working although I can still use the CD and get FM radio. The unit has a readout on the front that usually shows the time and this stopped working too, presumably because it got the time via the DAB radio.
The unit works from mains and batteries although I have only ever used it on mains.

I have a miele S712 (2 yrs old worked fine yesterday) - I had been doing some diy work inside and had the vac on just to reduce some of the dust in the air - after a while the vacuum fizzled out. I guessed it had overheated and took it outside to cool down - when I tried to turn it back on pressing the power button gives it power and it starts to **** but it won't STAY on, soon as you release the power button it stops, and the orange bag indicator is showing full. As I have a compressor I took

I have a bissell pro heat model 7901-B that has power but no water circulation. I was told that the previous owner used it without water and that she couldn't get it the power on. I bought it off of her and cleaned it out and now the power works, but there is no water circulation. The brushes run and heater works, just can't seem to get it to circulate water.
